We don't support running under a security manager. Lots of permissions needed, and the code isn't segmented properly with doPrivileged() blocks. That could change, but for now that's how it is...

George, as far as your situation goes, it sounds rather unique. Your best bet would be to turn on JPDA debugging and put a breakpoint in the AuthorizationManager code. That will tell you FOR SURE what is going on. If you are up for that, I can help you, but you've got to know your way around Eclipse.

Uhm, wait... AFAIK we don't support running under a security manager!

@Janne, Andrew: Has that changed?

Not sure the inner workings of how JSPWiki uses jspwiki.properties, but you could try turning on Java security manager debugging and see if that
shows up anything. Check out the trouble shooting section of

http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/security-manager- howto.html

Also, does jspwiki.log show anything?

Have you looked through all applicable log files for signs of exceptions
or other errors?

That's fine, and I don't necessarily disagree with you.

However, although I am running as root (which I probably should not be - but this is a simple install), I have not changed any of the env. values out-of-the-box for CENTOS 5.5. Other than me specifying JAVA_HOME, no other env. variable is being set. What is very strange about this, is that is happens exactly the same on 2 different machines, using 2 different OS'es, and 2 slightly different JDK's.

Just for grins, I re-tested again on the Windows installation (Tomcat 6.0.32, JDK 1.6.0_24/1.5.0_32).

After running the Security Configuration Verification page, I still get ALL GREENS for JDK 1.6 and mixed GREEN/RED for JDK 1.5.

Are there freshly installed JDKs and servers, user accounts?
Are you using JDKs provided by the Linux distro or one you downloaded separately from Oracle? (Its always possible that there is some configuration anywhere in the above that is interfering with reading jspwiki.policy.)

What do the user environment variables look like when you start tomcat? Do you have any special CATALINA_OPTS or JAVA_OPTS defined in catalina.sh?

It would appear to be something in your environment, as Janne, myself and others all have been successful so its got to be something in your environment, just need to find it.

FWIW: I installed tomcat6 ubuntu dist (via apt-get tomcat6) which also installed OpenJDK, also worked for me.

Thanks for taking the time to research all of this.

I am not sure why things are not working for me with 2 different machines and flavors 1.6 JDK (which is very frustrating since I think 1.5 is about to go the way of 1.4 - eol).

I enabled the SecurityConfig.jsp and was able to show using 1.6 and Tomcat 6.0.32 I would get ALL GREEN boxes no matter what I would set jspwiki.policy to, and would get a mix of GREEN and RED using 1.5.

I was thinking that maybe I should d/l the source and try to build the JSPWiki.jar file using 1.6 and see if I get different results. Just not sure.

All this commotion got the best of me, so I gave it a spin. Plus I'm running 2.4 and I probably should really upgrade.

At any rate, seemed to work for me, here's what I did:

   1.  Spun up a new Ubuntu Server 10.10 X64 VM
   2.  Created install folder /app
   3.  Downloaded JDK 1.6.0_24 X64 from Oracle
   4.  Installed Java into /app/jdk1.6.0_24
   5.  export JAVA_HOME=/app/jdk1.6.0_24
   6.  Downloaded Tomcat 6.0.32
   7.  Installed Tomcat in /app/web/apache-tomcat-6.0.32
8. Started up Tomcat to make sure its working. It was. Shut it down.
   9.  Downloaded JSPWiki 2.8.4
   10. Installed JSPWiki into /app/web/sites/default/webapps/wiki
   11. Installed corepages into /app/web/sites/default/webapps/wiki
12. Edited jspwiki.properties to fix paths for pageDir and storageDir 13. Created Tomcat webapp descriptor in /app/web/apache- tomcat-6.0.32/conf/Catalina/localhost/wiki.xml (attached) 14. Started up Tomcat hit the /wiki/Installer.jsp page in browser. 15. Restarted Tomcat. Verified I could create files as anonymous, and I could login to admin account. 16. Changed WEB-INF/jspwiki.policy (attached) file so that only logged in users can create/modify pages. 17. Restarted Tomcat. Verified I could not created/modify pages until I logged in. Seemed pretty straight forward to me. Much easier than getting JSPWiki 2.4 with a custom jspwiki.policy to work with Sun Java System Web Server 7.0.

:-)

The Security Configuration Verifier showed the exact permissions of what I could do.

This is odd, since I'm running on same JSPWiki, Ubuntu 10.04, Tomcat 6.0.32 (which is BTW a recommended upgrade; Chrome 10 breaks on occasion otherwise), and I have jspwiki.policy working. However, I am running OpenJDK 6b20-1.9.7-0ubuntu1~10.04.1.



Is it possible that for some reason Sun JDK's built-in policy management is kicking in here? Or that it might just be broken in some odd fashion. Can you try OpenJDK and see if that works for you?
